In preparing to write my posts, I often come across noteworthy and sometimes bizarre financial and business news. Below are links to some of these sites. Enjoy!
Recently, I participated in two carnivals: the Money Hacks Carnival #113 and The Best of the Best in Money and Personal Finance #14 at Len Penzo. Wow, I’m so excited that Through the Looking Glass was an editor’s pick. This rocks!!!
